Racławickie 14, Lublin Poland Census and census-like material preserved in the archives of Siedlce, Lublin and Sandomierz dioceses, 18-19th centuries Introduction The parish lists of souls are strictly connected with the organizational and pastoral changes in the Catholic Church after the Council of Trent. When the second generation of post- Tridentine bishops attained power, libri status animarum were introduced in the territory of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. The order that parish priests should keep special registers of parishioners appeared for the first time in the pastoral letter of bishop Bernard Maciejowski ( Epistola pastoralis, 1601), which came into force in the whole area of the country after the provincial council in Other subsequent councils in the 17 th and 18 th c. added detailed instructions and rules for preparing the parish lists of souls (Kumor 1967). The literature of the subject and the archival investigation provide information about numerous summary statistics unquestionably based on the exact registers of parishioners or lists of confessions. To date a regular and systematic query regarding this type of source ( status animarium, confessio paschalis ) in the church archives in Poland has not been organized by historical demographers. The only attempt was by the Institute of Church Archives, Libraries and Museums at John Paul II Catholic University of Lublin in the 1960s, which carried out a special survey and collected questionnaires from all diocesan archives and from more than 140 parishes of Przemyśl, Tarnów and Cracow dioceses. The forms sent by diocesan archives confirmed the presence of lists of souls in the 4 of them (Olsztyn, Lublin, Przemyśl, Włocławek). As a result of the parish survey, it was established that 50 parishes (over 30% of those investigated) possessed books and materials containing the lists of parishioners from before The below specified list embraces the publications of censuses discovered in the Polish archives: Spis ludności parafii biłgorajskiej z 1788 roku [Census of Biłgoraj parish, 1788], ed. J. Gawrysiakowa, Genealogia. Studia i Materiały Historyczne, 10 (1998); Spis katolików parafii Żołądek z 1700 r. [A list of Catholics in Żołądek parish, 1700], ed. G. Błaszczyk, J. Ochmański, Lituano-Slavica Posnaniensis, 2 (1987), pp ; Spis ludności Dobrego Miasta z 1695 r. [Census of Dobre Miasto, 1695], ed. B. Kumor, Przeszłość Demograficzna Polski, 9 (1976), pp ;

9 The Diocesan Archive in Sandomierz Sandomierz, Katedralna 1 Phone: Archival aids The Diocesan Archive in Sandomierz does not have any systematic archival inventory at its disposal. Instead of that, there is a list of collections and archival units arranged according to their place on bookshelves (document in.doc format]. Both the collections and archival units do not have classification marks or page numbers. Although some of the units preserved the marks of curial registration on original covers (especially in case of parish records), they cannot serve as classification marks. Investigated archival resources 1. Wykazy o charakterze statystycznym [Statistical register]. Spis Ludności Diecezji Sandomierskiej [Census of Sandomierz dioecese], 1894 The register contains the number of inhabitants in individual villages and distance from the parish church. Księga Parafii Diecezji Sandomierskiej. Duchowni i Wierni Statystyka [The book of parishes in Sandomierz dioecese. Statistics of clergy and parishioners], The register contains a list of parishes with the villages belonging to them and the total number of inhabitants in every village. 2. Wizytacje dziekańskie i Akta dekanatów [Visitations and records of deaconries]. [In this group of records there are some summary materials concerning parishioners, without any attachments or detailed lists of persons] Akta Wizytacji Dziekańskich [Records of decanal visitations], I Akta Wizytacji Dziekańskich [Records of decanal visitations], II Akta Wizytacji Dziekańskich [Records of decanal visitations], Akta Wizytacji Dziekańskich [Records of decanal visitations], 1858 Akta Dekanatu Staszowskiego [Records of Staszów Deaconry], Akta Dekanatu Koprzywnickiego [Records of Koprzywnica Deaconry], Akta Dekanatu Koprzywnickiego [Records of Koprzywnica Deaconry], Akta Dekanatu Koprzywnickiego [Records of Koprzywnica Deaconry], Akta Dekanatu Koprzywnickiego [Records of Koprzywnica Deaconry], Akta Dekanatu Koprzywnickiego [Records of Koprzywnica Deaconry], 1834 Akta Dekanatu Koprzywnickiego [Records of Koprzywnica Deaconry], Akta Dekanatu Koprzywnickiego [Records of Koprzywnica Deaconry], 1836 Akta Dekanatu Bodzentyńskiego [Records of Bodzentyn Deaconry], Akta Dekanatu Bodzentyńskiego [Records of Bodzentyn Deaconry], Akta parafii [Records of parishes] Records of parishes are of consistorial origin. They mainly contain the documentation which was the result of the current activity of parishes: correspondence with the diocesan authority, Rome (dispensations, privileges) and with the civil authority. Akta Parafii Beszowa [Records of Beszowa parish],

16 Conclusions On the basis of the archival investigations and numerous conversations with employees of the above mentioned church archives, no required lists of souls or detailed personal registers ( status animarum, confessio paschalis ) have been found. The literature of the subject indicates that the material of this kind can be preserved in parish records and church registers in local, i.e. parish, archives. To date, most of these records have not been ordered and inventoried. Since the moment of the creation of diocesan archives, a regular undertaking of collecting historical documents in Polish parishes has not been embarked on. There is more likelihood of finding books of status animarum or confessio paschalis during local and dispersed queries in parishes; however; one should remember about the wartime damages and losses in the church archives.
